All out civil war in football. Wheres tony stark and captain america when you need them?
A penny for the thoughts of the players and managers in all this. Would love to hear their honest opinions.

The UEFA and FIFA meltdown is delicious, they had it coming for years.
I think that cricket needed it though. There was a closed club and even until T20 the game was run in many ways as it had been in the 19th century. Even with the latest World Cup "reforms" the ICC is moving in the opposite direction to FIFA and the football World Cup. Plus there is already money in football and cricket needs to find new ways to fund the domestic and first class games. County teams generally run at a deficit.
You just don't get it
No Dortmund... you love to see it
So, we can buy Haaland and Sancho now! Happy days!
Heartbreaking day.
The day I walk away from United and never look back. I'm ashamed, embarrassed and disgusted.

Who was part of this think tank that allowed this to happen? You fecking urchins.
They are ready to go forward, I don't think that will matter.
I am more interested by the Spanish clubs like Real or Barcelona, can they really do that without the approval of their socios? I hope not.
For the UK, my hope is that the government changes the legislation for good and decides that this is an attempt to hurt national interests and therefore, a change in ownership is being forced through a forced sale for that reason.
But none of the PL kicking them out will really matter to those clubs if they decided to join that SL.

So what was the point of finishing top 4 anyway?
Im a bit glad clubs are finally telling UEFA and FIFA to feck off
Now say it once again for the TV companies.
Okay but then they need to follow through on their shithousery
I want fireworks before and after every match, dancing girls, the players walking through the tunnel onto the pitch with cash confetti everywhere etc

Kicking off now
Wait... the 15 founder clubs doesn't include Dortmund, Ajax or PSG? Those are some big misses.
Well said - I’m packing in Manchester United FC. I liked this side - Bruno and Pogba clicking, Cavani. Shaw, Harry, Henderson. Greenwood getting back his form. What a shame. Fyck off Glazers
So teams like Arsenal can just pack it in every year knowing they will always get into European competition? An absolute joke and takes so much from the domestic league, when the big clubs don't have to worry about a top 4 finish.
I'm seriously considering packing it in, it's being a fan of a hedge fund at this point. Results don't matter anymore, it's just a business.

It is, but when us as the consumer suffer greatly, I can't take much pleasure out of it.
Time to get drunk, feck these soulless American corporations and state funded clubs that have caused this.
Players are not paid by their country are they?
In basketball, the best American players seldom turn up for their country at Olympics etc.
Guess this is where we are heading now. Italian and Spanish clubs are in huge debt with Covid, English clubs want more bucks...
No, I really do. People are terrified of change for some reason. The game has been crying out for a shakeup, this is going to be fantastic to watchIf PL said clubs can't play if they are in SL, would that spook some clubs out of the SL?
Honestly, I could see the likes of Everton winning a few PL and passing out arsenal who are getting demolished every week playing the same ten teams over and over with no real consequences, no relegation, no top four, permanent mid table obscurity. Doesn't matter if arsenal have more money for better players than Everton , what would matter is the relative

Don't think so
I'm all for sticking it to 'the man', be they middle-eastern bastards, Sky shitheads or corrupt UEFA suits who have done so much to ruin the game and take it away from the fans. The trouble is we are the fecking man; there's no way whatever the Glazers, Kroenke and the rest are proposing is good for football, I'm just not buying it.
Sounds like we're doing it then. Be interesting to see the proper format they come up with, cause obviously they're gonna need more games than what they suggested when it's the only football these teams are playing.
It's rich to see Murdoch's Sky Sports clutching their pearls. They created this monster.
I’m sure they’ll find another German club to give all their players too
Oh, the old "throw in some idpol you don't actually give a shit about to use as a shield against wider criticism" strategy.
How very every corporation in 2021.
The thoughts of never being able to add to our 3 European cups does not bear thinking about
Also I don’t find it appealing at all having to play city, Liverpool etc 4 times a season
Top 4 race will be no more. We can have a shit season and still guaranteed super league spot. It’s all just gross
I don’t think it will happen

Over reaction, no?
Exactly my sentiments.
Jesus fecking christ.
I know there had been a lot of justified shit about the awful new CL format proposals, but the Super League (if they got the way and played it while also remaining in the Premier League) would be even worse.
18 matches followed by two-legged quarter finals, semi finals and final.... so a minimum of 18 matches rising to a possible 25 games throughout the season. So forget the Carabao and FA cups for starters, there wouldn't be room for league and super league fixtures.

What would be the point of finishing anywhere between 2nd and 17th in the league starting from next season?
not for each club! Will clearly be shared amongst the founding members. Still in the region of 300m, but not 3.5bn each club!!
I hope every fecking stadium run by these cash obsessed leeches is empty when they open back up.
I'm disgusted. Non league it is then.
